You might bump your traffic numbers alot by trading but you can't measure the success of a site by ammount of visitors. Only by the ammount of cash in your hand. =)
I would say the common consensus is that google traffic is worth a whole lot more than skimmed traffic from your trades.
I would be very hesitant to send my hard earned organic traffic away to my trades just to get surfers who've been bumped around 5 sites already to land on my site.
But of course, if you go the TGP route you sort of "need" to trade. But be careful so that you don't just loose your good traffic in exchange for lots of bad traffic.
